Let's hope the knockers never have a child hooked on cannabis at the tender age of 12 or 14, a kid like the Bali boy. If the Hillsong kids got hold of him and turned his life around, would they still despise the Christian values they try to live by?

Cannabis is not addictive, it has no physical addictive properties; nor is it toxic (well it is but the quantity required to be consumed in the time required is physically impossible); that little bastard should swing for those comments; it's ignorance like this that keeps the medicinal properties of Cannabis suppressed in most of the world.

Politicians and Nappies need to be changed often and for the same reason.

The Christian Church movements are a cult; perhaps the biggest one; what's the difference?

Why can't you blokes leave the happy clappers alone?

because they get out of paying tax selling rubbish to people Sad

except they arent actually 'selling' anything. u dont pay tax ono donations. NOBODY does.

Yes I do. If I DONATE money to my employer, there's no tax deduction. If I DONATE money to my mum, there's no tax deduction. If I DONATE money to the kebab shop down the road, there's no tax deduction. Tax deductions for donations are only allowable for certain allowed organisations.

but your MUM doesnt have to pay tax on your donation not eoes yoru emploer nor the kebab shop. toenail and a few others think that somehow a church should pay tax on donations given to it. I dont know why.

Hmm, tough choice??
Only gagging, no choice at all for me, I mean if my kids want to smoke a little pot, then they better bring a j home to share with their old daddy, but if they start hanging around with those bloody inane happy clappers, then I might as well jump off the back step, because I will have failed as a father, in teaching them that they find meaning in themselves and their relationships, not in make believe religious fantasy.

so for you, a drug addict is ok but a christian who cares for his fellow man isnt? odd sense of morality.

You continue to confuse YOUR morals with the rest of the worlds.

so you think it is a NORMAL moral to prefer drug addictin to going to church? that is stupid even in your worldview.

youjust keep on believing that... enjoy yoru denial (and addiction). no one with an ounce of medical training or a skerrick of intelligence beleives cannabis isnt addictive.

One thing remains true, until the human race discovered oil and its plastic derivitives, Hemp was a major factor in all lives.
It was grown and smoked since time ancient times, according to the sage Jello Biafra, George Washington has recorded in his diary that he separated the felmale from male plants, the only reason for this would be quality of smoke Shocked

It wasn't the church or doctors calling for its criminalisation, it was a group of companies suring up commerical opportunities.

Now the juries still out but I am inclined to believe all the chemicals used in hydroponic growth could well tigger the mental problems but if thats the case it's not the plant at all. Wink

The chemicals used in hydro are just fertiliser - NPK - just like you'd use to grow anything else from roses to tomatoes. Hydroponic just allows you to control things like light hours and nutrients, giving you better control over its growth.
Besides, IF weed, indo or outdo, CAUSED schizophrenia, the incidence rate would have spiked around the 60's and again in the 90s/noughties....but it has stayed constant for...forever.

True. But I've already paid the tax so why should my mum pay again?

Whereas with a church, I get to claim back the tax that I paid. And the church pays nada. So no tax is paid. Simple eh?
